The Wallaw in Northumberland

Quick food, decent prices. Services are quick.

Didn't have good but the place is lovely. The decor is wonderful.

Good food and even better value

Had a family get together that was ruined by a very rude abrupt woman from the bar. My 16 year old had 2 sips of a corona cero which is alcohol free 0.0% which it says on the menu and on the bottle. Was asked to leave as he had apparently consumed alcohol which he hadn't. Won't be back again as there was no reason for her to speak to us they way she did. Maybes teach your staff to speak to people they way they would expect to be spoke to.

Got asked to leave as my 16 year old had 2 sips of a corona cero which is 0.0% alcohol. It's says it on the bottle and on the weatherspoons app. The lady from the bar that came over to our table to was rude and abrupt claiming they could lose their licence. How could they lose their licence when there is literally no alcohol in the corona cero what so ever. We were having a big family get together that was ruined by the weatherspoon staff. Will not be back again.

Price can't be beaten. If you want a decent meal for a reasonable price try it out

Dark, depressing and no atmosphere, needs an overhaul.

One of the best conversions from a cinema to a pub.

It's what you'd expect from spoons. Cheap cheerful, the place is clean the food well its spoons but every time we have breakfast here the eggs are always perfect runny yolks crispy bacon. Perfect Sunday hangover breakfast 😋

What a lovely spoons a old cinema 🎥

There was a party of 17 of us and the girl who delivered our food to the table was the most miserable person to have in customer service, basically throwing/banging down our plates. She then came to collect the empty plates and again almost smashed plates throwing them into the plastic tub to take away. One of my party made comment and said "is there something wrong you almost smashed plates" the surrounding area fell silent i think everyone got a shock with the clatters. The girl never responded or had any manners at all.

First time visit and will be back again much better than the one in Bedlington

This place needs a good scrub! You can see the muck in all the corners and on the walls. Shut the place for a day and get the deep cleaners in.

So we were a party of 10, pizza was like a4 paper tasted bland, forgot one of our pizzas. Then the attitude when asked for a update was awful from sophie almost like we lied about it not arriving. Same issue happened again near the end of the meal with missing 3 drinks off. Again refunded but but nicer woman helped us when we reached out about that issue, also the glasses we were given has lipstick marks on. So clearly not washed correctly, some drinks were full to brim some not, whomever was handling online orders was clearly having a bad day, overall atmosphere was poor. (3:30pm)6-10-24)

Had the new ramen noodles today. I had the veggie option hubby had the chicken. Wish there was a king prawn option. It was absolutely gorgeous and really filling! You nee to get some chopsticks tho!!! My mam had the tomato soup which is always lush but 3 massive big chips in the blue bowel. Come on man they need to be binned!

Place is one of the prettiest Spoons you will find being converted from an old theater. Apart from some of the local riff raff who seem to live there. Place is pleasant enough and staff are lovely. Food is what you expect from a spoons. Prices are getting a bit steep for what you get I my opinion but it is what it is. Most folk are here for the drinks prices anyway.

A wetherspoons pub an old cinema interesting decor the service food and drinks what i would expect from a wetherspoons

No food just drinks but lovley staff n very clean 5 stars xx

The Wallaw is probably my favorite Spoons. I first came here on a footy trip to watch my team Curzon Ashton at Blyth Spartans several years ago. I was fascinated by the transformation of the former cinema into it's current format. I have relocated from Greater Manchester to Tyneside so I will be able to visit more frequently. Such a beautiful day was had on Blyth beach followed by lunch at my favorite Spoons.

Always cold in there . Tables sticky

As wetherspoons go it's a super nice design and usually not too busy so service is fast

We just had a drink but found it very comfortable with great prices. Will be back

This building is too big and lacks so much atmosphere due to this reason

ve been here several times, and I haven't regretted it. The food, the service, everything is top-notch. The soft music that plays and the activities they have lined up every time is very remarkable

Food ok, can't beer. No music 👎

Amazing building in an old cinema, gorgeous bar decor and nice atmosphere. Normal Wetherspoon food and drink for the normal prices. Staff were lovely and we had a nice lunch.

Great food and fantastic service

Food very nice, Gourmet Steak and kid's meals. Converted cinema turned into Witherspoons. Affordable prices..£37 for 4 people including drinks. Definitely worth a visit.

One of the nicer Weatherspoons I've been in. Lovely old building, nice quiet atmosphere. Decent, cheap hot food and very cold soft drinks! Fast service from both waitresses,

Couldn't find a clean table the place was so messy and dirty 🙈

Poor food very poor hygiene in disabled toilet. Rather scruffy general atmosphere

Great show. Staff just a delight

Excellent service as always and 10 out of 10 my grandkids and I really enjoyed it.

Love this place. Excellent decor and friendly staff

A friendly environment, albeit on a Wednesday afternoon I visited with friends the pub was only a quarter full, we had a jug of cosmopolitan cocktail which was okay but served in chunky glasses - more for younger clients.

Usually really good but today we went in for breakfast and our food came before our empty mugs I had to go and get it

I've been here several times, and I haven't regretted it. The food, the service, everything is top-notch. The soft music that plays and the activities they have lined up every time is very remarkable.

Not enough real ales on for me, but the price was good. Had three breakfast the first one was spot on the next two were cold. So didn't have any more.

Only had drinks. Great big venue - converted theatre - plenty of seats, decent friendly service. Reasonable prices.

Love the conversion, food and guest Ales BUT where is the Welsh Flag and strip for the Euros?? Update Sorry Wales I forgot Poland knocked you out of the qualifiers

Doesn't look great from the outside but once inside it is good.

We just had a drink, beautiful Wetherspoons

Needs a deep clean. Tables chairs and carpet sticky

Food was standard, well done and quickly served. Bhaji was underdone in the middle. Maybe cook on a lower heat for a little longer.

There has been extensive flooding in the foyer of the building for many months. The smell when you enter the premises is not nice due to the damp. However the staff, food and price of drinks are all spot on.

Good food and drinks at reasonable prices, very friendly staff, lovely spacious comfortable interior

Was impressed staff friendly only thing was as walking in obviously had leak on roof and carpet stinks other then that good

Prompt service, top quality food nice atmos

Nice food . Exactly what you expect from a wetherspoons.

Nice big place. Easy to find a quiet corner. Has a shining vibe.

if i could put 0 stars i would this place is absolutely diabolical, i ordered my drinks as per usual and 30 minutes later i still had no drinks so when i went up to the bar to ask about it they told me the drinks had already been served, which means someone else got my order so when i had explained that to them they turned around with a sarcastic tone and said they can’t do nothing about it

Weatherspoons at blyth lovly old cinema good food blyth the town with 15 second hand shops !

Only good thing was the cup of tea,the black pudding was hard over cooked, sausage burnt ,egg was only warm bacon and beans were hot will I return don't think so probs try Toby next time

We loved how the interior has stayed relevant to what the building used to be. The razzle dazzle of the art deco cinema.

Great selection of ales. That's the attraction as well as the price.

Great weatherspoons. Its an old cinema.

No atmosphere to speak of, staff took over a hour to move plates from the table WE stacked for them. Took 10 minutes to be served thru the app for 1 pint. And to top it off someone crapped all over the mens toilets which was there for over an hour. Disgusting

Just there for Coffee, the hot drinks station could have been a bit tidier. On the whole v good and very reasonable.

Very very cheap , nice pint too

Only called in for a quick pint

friendly helpful kind staff reusable prices for food and drink nice chil relaxing place

First time visitor. Very impressed by this conversion of an early 20th century cinema. The auditorium is vast and consequently quite draughty. The well known ales are cheap as is the extensive menu, but don't expect much that is healthy. It is Wetherspoons after all. There appeared to be only a couple of staff manning the bar, delivering the food and clearing the tables, but they were cheerful enough and it wasn't busy. Probably fine if you were with a large party, but for two it's a bit like eating in a football stadium. If it was a woman I would describe her as 'All fur coat and nee knickers'. I enjoyed the visit just to see what they have done with the place, but probably won't be back. Sorry.

Wetherspoons. Nice looking, converted cinema. Very big and rather draughty. Plenty tables, but understaffed. Food and drink cheap and plentiful. If it was a girl, I would describe her as all fur coat and née knickers. Can say I've been there, but won't go again

Lovely pub went with my dad and stepmum

Excellent choice of beers especially the shipyard ale 🍺 good atmosphere food ok

Lovely venue, and starters were nice, service is good and prices cheap. But unfortunately let down by a very poor main, pain the extra for the gourmet 8oz sirloin steak and had it medium to be safe….but think I got 4oz steak and 4oz of inedible fat. Avoid the steak!!

Not enough staff at the bar. Always the same, queueing just to get a drink can take up to 20 minutes! What a nightmare. Staff are not the friendliest.

Very nice place. About the best spoons I've been in. Hope it stays the same.

Canny day food was ok plus won Jacky on bandit so had a great day 😂

It's looking a bit rundown at the moment. For what it's costing for the repairs and kitchen Refurb it would have been better left as a cinema. It needs a good refurbishment more security on doors.as you get gangs of abusive little toe rags not very nice better places to visit in Blyth

typical weatherspoons beers good lacks atmosphere

Generally a quiet pub it has an impressive setting as an Art Deco style cinema which has retained many original features including the top balcony and seats. Currently being renovated but you can still eat and drink here

Took my mam for breakfast and was stunned with the decor. Table services was good and the food was excellent. Atmosphere was very relaxing and staff were very friendly and helpful.

Always a fun pub coz it is authentic for what it was and the beers not bad either. Always a good place to chillax !!

Food was ok. No atmosphere or ambience so we ate and exited.

Fabulous menu choice, great value for mobey and quick service.

Came in for a catchup with friends on our only day off ... got here at 11am ordered drinks , food and more drinks ... arranged for family to meet us here at teatime with the kids ... only to be given a reserved sign on our table and to be told we have to leave by 4pm as a party of 20 ppl were coming in !! No ifs no buts and staff member was quite abrupt about it... food itself wasn't bad ... for a change ... normally cold breakfasts but burgers today were nice.

Lovely place my first time at this one

Good food along with good service. Reasonably priced. Large seating area, though a bit gloomy.

The OldHippodrome cinema now a Wetherspoons. Staff very friendly and good service.

Same standards, this restaurant was a theatre in the past! Lovely features... You have to go and see the toilet's room ! (ladies)

Great wetherspoons, and the toilets are not a 10 minute hike upstairs🤣

As wetherspoons goes this is slightly above average. Lovely staff and quite an iconic building

Had breakfast here . Beautiful building inside keeping up the cinema atmosphere this building used to be .

The food was ok, as you'd expect from a spoons. The service was good.

Favourite wetherspoon pub - so beautifully decorated and the food is always really good.

Bit chilly. But ok for food and drink

An absolutely amazing place! Wetherspoons food is OK but excellent value. This was a picture house and the Art Deco style is just stunning. Excellent service and great value, atmosphere lovely too!

Incredible location and ambience! 🤩

Gets busy and only one member of staff on

Food was cold as they lost me even though they had my table number

The standard and quality of the real ales being served has sadly rapidly deteriorated over the last few weeks , used to be really good but are regularly awful now , when returning foul tasting swill to be replaced you are now met with looks of disgust and Some of the worst customer service I have ever experienced as a seasoned real ale drinker .An awful experience ,and the amount of regular faces that no longer frequent the wallaw for it’s real ale is palpable !

Nice food for a low price. But please accept European cards also.

I must commend the staff for their hard work, especially Laura and Rachel. They never stopped , clearing and cleaning tables, collecting glasses and serving food. Also the kitchen staff for their efficiency. It was super to see a great team at work

Attended with work colleague for evening meal. Firstly, the venue is very nicely converted from an old cinema. Ordered food and drink via their app. I ordered a Doom Bar - after a short while, I was told that it was being changed and might be 10 mins - I was happy to wait and ordered a pint of water in the meantime. Then my mixed grill turned up. Sausage, lamb, pork chips and the onion rings were fine. Then we came to the steak and the gammon. Gammon - over half was inedible fat or gristle Steak - 10% was edible meat. The rest was inedible unrendered fat. Waitress was called and after returning to the kitchen with my issues, returned to say that the chef(?) wouldn't be cooking any replacements. Manager called. Explained to her and she also spoke to the chef (?). She told me they wouldn't replace the items as they couldn't guarantee that the replacement would be any better. WTAF?? Who stocks rubbish cuts of meat like that?? I was however, given a refund. Awful food, good beer, nice venue, dodgy chef and/or dodgy purchasing department. Manager very polite but ought to have torn the chef a second one.

Really enjoyed curry day in a spectacular setting.

Went in for breakfast on our weekend away in Northumberland. What a beautiful building this is, and a lot of it looks preserved well. The tables are a bit close together for fetching your coffee, it's a bit of a dodgem/slalom. The staff were friendly and helpful and it was clean and tidy. Usual spoons menu. The toast was proper toasted here :) not pale like some places

Only marked it down a little on atmosphere as it was really really busy. Having said that the food was nice, made and served relatively quickly. Very good value for money will definitely be back

An old theatre house converted to a spoons, real big floor space, good atmosphere friendly staff
